Needing some support

Posted 11-25-2009 at 07:11 AM by Anastasia

Needing some support seems strange to me as I m usually the one in the carers role.
However I truly need help now, even just a few words of encouragement.
As if its not bad enough dealing with our darling Ed s dilemma, we continue to have a major problem in our family that has resufaced again and the person involved cant see past their own issues as persons with addictions cant and hence this adds to trauma all round.

Never written a blog before and would never have thought I d be writing one on this topic,and I guess those reading it didnt ever think they would be either.

140 years, Wow! Boy wouldn't he be upset like the rest of us if he knew that there was still no cure for ALS? There will be, I know it!
